Story highlights

Supermoon is the biggest in almost 70 years

The next supermoon is in mid-December

(CNN)The full moon is bigger and brighter than it's been in decades, delighting stargazers, photographers and anyone who's taken a moment or two to look up at the nighttime sky over the past day or two.

In fact, NASA scientists say that the moon is brighter than it has appeared at any point in the last 68 years.

We won't see another supermoon like this until 2034, so make sure you get a look. If you took photos of the supermoon, please share them on Instagram, Twitter or Facebook with the hashtag #CNNiReport.

Earth's shadow partially obscures the view of a perigree full moon, or supermoon, during a lunar eclipse as seen from Stedman, North Carolina, on Sunday, September 27. The combination of a supermoon and total lunar eclipse last occurred in 1982 and will not happen again until 2033.

When and where to see?

According to EarthSky.org, the moon turned precisely full at 1:52 p.m. UTC, or 8:52 a.m. ET Monday, but people on the East Coast in North America and in Europe can see the supermoon anytime the moon is out in the next day or two.

The moon rises over a building in Madrid on November 13, 2016, on the eve of the "supermoon."

Moon spotters in Asia are perhaps the best placed to catch the moon at its absolute largest, since the full moon will peak there at night.
